DESCRIPTION: The property, which offers spacious and flexible accommodation, is now in need of general internal updating and presents an excellent opportunity for purchasers wishing to refurbish and create a home to their own style and requirements. The accommodation on the ground floor includes a welcoming entrance hall, two good-sized bedrooms, a bathroom, and a fitted kitchen with a range of base and wall-mounted units leading to a breakfast room. A well-proportioned sitting room, extending the width of the property, enjoys views over and direct access to the rear garden. The ground floor also includes a useful utility area and two additional reception/workshop rooms (one currently used as a dining room), providing flexibility for a variety of uses. A staircase from the lounge rises to the first floor where there is a large double bedroom with adjoining WC facilities and useful eaves storage. Outside, to the front of the property is a paved driveway with ample off-road parking. The rear garden is a particularly attractive feature of the property, designed for ease of maintenance while providing a pleasant and private outdoor space. Immediately adjacent to the house is a covered seating area, shaded by mature climbing plants, the garden is predominantly laid to gravel with well-stocked borders providing colour and interest, together with areas of paving and a raised timber deck, ideal for alfresco entertaining. There is also a greenhouse and several useful outbuildings, perfect for storage or as workshop space. The garden is enclosed by mature planting providing a good degree of privacy and from various points within the garden, there are attractive views across neighbouring green space with the spire of Chichester Cathedral visible in the distance.
